wedding post

came across this post where people shared on facebook which talks about how much $ to spend on a wedding.... according to him, it cost about $80,000 for a wedding.... at first glance i was like OMFG!!! kidding man.... on second thought, i dont think my wedding will be much cheaper....

my banquet at fairmont will cost almost $30k for just 20 tables... due to all the bloody service charge & GST..... pre-wedding shoot package cost $3800.... actual day photography + videography = $2288... wedding bands = $1176.... proposal ring i think almost $2500..... so far the total already cost $40k.... that havent include honeymoon + purchase of flat.... so getting married really spend ALOT of $!!!!

the blogger also mentioned ultimately it is up to the couples to decide on how to hold their wedding.... but that doesnt apply to all the couples... at least not for me.... when i was young, i did dream of having a grand wedding & etc... but as I grow up & now preparing my own wedding... i prefer to keep things simple.... actually my dream wedding now will be an outdoor garden solemnization followed by a nice meal under a nice pavilion.... of cause, having an outdoor wedding will still cost a fair amount of $, i think is nicer than having a formal sit down 8 course dinner..... but hell no.... my parents insist on a sit down meal.... & must be dinner....

haiz.... want to save $ also cannot.... then want to save $ on other stuff like clothes & wedding cars also give me problem.... i havent check out La Belle kua (the chinese wedding gown, the ang bao thing) but from what i remember they only have 2 designs... so my mama asked me to rent another kua outside... & renting will cost $150+... & to make matter worst.... is hard to find kua rental lo..... then want rent normal car instead of those high class car like BMW from the bridal shop for the wedding car... my parents want something nicer cause the car must look new.... like omg.... is just a transport vehicle!!!! need to be so particular mea?!?!?!?! although these things seem to be just petty cash, they do add up as you pay for things along the way..... so in short... do save enough $ for your wedding.....

  1. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming at times. You have to consider everything; from bridal cars to your wedding gown, and so on. It must've been very exhausting. It was a good thing that your parents helped you in planning, especially on deciding what type of car to use for your transport. Choosing the right vehicle for the job can be tricky, especially when you consider the gown and how many are riding with the bride, and such. And speaking of which, what type of car did you end up using?

  2. totally agree, there are so many things that you have to think about for the wedding & my wedding is consider simple, nothing too fancy...in the end we gotten toyota altis & we had problems with the car rental company too =( i think the car model itself is pretty decent & thankfully i chose a not so bulky gown so we can sit comfortably in the car
